a lighter flywheel may come with some rattling sound. Thou a lighter flywheel will enable the power to come a bit quicker, it will also lose more power in between shifts. The reason the OEM flywheel is heavier is so when you shift, power isn't lost.
you shouldnt get any chatter from a light weight flywheel, you'll get chatter from a puck style clutch disk though...

Wrong. Watch YouTube videos on lighter flywheels and listen to the chatter. Even my paperwork for my ACT Streetlite flywheel explain that chatter will be heard after removing the oem dual mass flywheel.
Would be very interested in before and after photos.
i will do my best to get some for you but he has assured me that he works on g35's and 350z's and has done the refinishing of the flywheels on these cars.

depends how you define chatter...seems to vary community to community
older school guys I find tend to define chatter as the abrupt jerking motion an unsprung 3 or 4 puck clutch makes. Newer guys tend to define it as the marbles-in-a-coffee-pot sound that a lightweight flywheel reveals
Go to the vendor section. Theres a combo deal on a EXEDY OEM clutch (same one they sell to you at the dealership) and a ACT 16lbs. Flywheel for $680 shipped.
so am i correct in understanding that exedy oem replacements can be used with all or most aftermarket flywheels? this has been buggin me for quite some time haha
if it feels like you're pushing down on a 100lbs barrel then i dont see how its still stock. My stock clutch isnt as light as my Audi clutch was, but really has no true muscle needed to push it down.
Idk i have the same issue with my clutch it kills my foot driving threw cities. but then again mines shifting funny and most likely needs tlc to resolve the issue
i have friend who is a mechanic and we grew up together i just pay for parts and he will do the labor for me. i just need to know if i can pair any flywheel with the excedy oem replacement clutch. On a side note why are you replacing the slave and master cylinders, and clutch line?
Hey, where in CA do you live? I need to replace by rear main seal and might as well replace my clutch/flywheel while its apart. But I'm looking to learn and have someone help with the install. Would your guy hook it up if you're in the area?!
